Some Simple Questions show Atheistic Origin Science is false (proof 2 begins)
RE: Some Simple Questions show Atheistic Origin Science is false (proof 2 begins)
I do think there is a sort of progress being shown here. There was probably a time when "Grace" would have promoted the existence of god by asking "so who makes the lightning?" As each of those questions was answered and there was no god behind them, "Grace" would shift the goalposts.

Note where those goalposts are today: Grace wants answers regarding what happened shortly after the planet was formed, and she wants DNA evidence to go with it. I'm thinking that in a hundred years or so, "Grace" will demand to know what existed prior to the 'big bang' and if we can produce physical evidence from the previous universe's existence. Otherwise she will insist that god lit the fuse on the 'big bang.'

The gaps aren't just becoming fewer and smaller, they're moving further and further back in time.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
